I scanned and uploaded these a couple weeks ago and promptly forgot to make a post with them. These are from the 1967 Better Homes and Gardens salad cookbook. Barely anything in this book resembles what I would consider a salad today. If it isn't meticulously assembled in a complicated pattern, it is suspended in a shimmering, quivering block of gelatin. I would not make any of them.
If for some reason you want the recipes to anything you've seen here,
Hahahaha, oh man, 1960s cookbooks are hilariously awful.
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOSH. There is no food more terrifying than a jellied salad. So wrong.
ReplyDeleteI do actually think a "tomato cup" would make a luncheon spectacular... Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine collects recipe books like these and turns the pages into envelopes. He sends gross mail.
